So I’m all for a la carte pricing for cable and satellite

This is offered where I live. Sounds good in theory, but it's not all it's cracked up to be. It costs $5 per channel, per month. Once you get more than a few channels, you might as well get the package.

I think that once that happened across the country, we would see competition by the channels driving the cost down.

We could get by with 10-12 channels, and I’m paying a little over $50/month for my Dish package.
